Am I Ovulating?
Basal Digital Thermometers
Checking your temperature every day can increase the likelihood of conception. Your basal body temperature rises at the time of ovulation. Digital thermometers will give you a reading in one minute and will let you know if the thermometer is correctly positioned.
Ovulation Tests
Just before ovulation, you have an increase in luteinizing hormone that, in turn, triggers ovulation. You can easily identify the LH surge by immersing a test strip in a sample of urine for a few seconds.
Ovulation Microscopes
Simply place a drop of saliva on a microscope slide a look for the 'ferning' pattern that pinpoints ovulation. These fertility tests are easy to use and are 98% accurate.
Am I Pregnant?
Pregnancy Tests
Sensitive home pregnancy tests detect the hCG hormone surge in your urine. hCG is secreted by the fertilized egg when it is implanted in the lining of the uterus. When used properly, they are 99% accurate.
